Use the kinetic molecular theory to explain the following scenario: You are planning a surprise for Ms. Baker. You plan to leave helium balloons in her room up high where she can not reach them to remove them (it is fun being short). To test your surprise you leave a helium filled Mylar balloon to float over night in Ms. Baker's classroom. When you left the balloon was floating approximately 6 ft above the floor. The next morning after clearing your windshield of frost you drive to school early to check on your surprise and you find that the balloon is sadly floating only 2 ft from the floor. Explain what has happened to your balloon assuming ideal behavior.

On a very hot and humid day, Alphonse takes an empty jar off the shelf. He puts a lid on the jar tightly and places it in the refrigerator. One hour later Alphonse discovers that many tiny water drops have formed on the inside of the sealed jar. Choose the best statement

Jane and Allen are experimenting in the lab with a sealed syringe of air. The syringe of air begins in a hot water bath and then they move it to an ice water bath. The plunger is free to move and it moves in when the syringe is placed in the ice water. [
] What happens to the pressure of the air trapped in the syringe? Compare the pressure of the air in the syringe in hot water to the air pressure in the ice water well after the plunger has stopped moving.

A gas consists of 85.7 % carbon and 14.3% hydrogen, by weight. A sample of this gas weighing 0.673 g occupies 729 mL at a pressure of 720.0 mmHg and a temperature of 77C. Calculate its empirical and molecular formulas.

Combination of empirical formulas and gas laws, Oh my! -- Remember that you need the molecular formulas molar mass to find its molecular formula. Can you find the molar mass of a gas?
